But to hell with supporters being inconvenienced in this manner, to hell with loyal long-term season ticket holders having to give up seats they have occupied for years and supported the club through thick and thin. At least we will have our flag-waving section centrally in full view of TV cameras and we can all rejoice as pundits drool over our "Unique atmosphere" - not that it has done much for our home results ! Not forgetting their mantra of "Selhurst is a hard place to go to" when our home record has been abysmal.And we will allow the HF branded as the 'Singing section' to continue to flout the ground regulations by their persistent standing.All for the "Greater good" of course.

I’d expect everyone will be up standing when the ball is in the box at The Holmesdale end, which probably happens a lot now, well when we attack it anyway. COYP
